Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake in Granada, Spain Causes Minor Injuries and DamagePreviousNext

A magnitude 4.7 to 4.8 earthquake struck Granada province in southern Spain on Tuesday, causing minor injuries to three people, including a child hospitalized for treatment. The tremor, with its epicenter near Gojar or Alhendín about 10 km south of Granada city, damaged buildings, cracked walls, and dislodged debris onto streets. Authorities restricted access to parts of the Alhambra complex and closed some public facilities as a precaution. This quake followed a stronger magnitude 5.0 tremor in the region days earlier, prompting ongoing caution for aftershocks.
